Which area of Howard Gardner's multiple intelligences do you feel is your area of strength? Explain why, and give an example.
From out of all the multiple intelligences Gardner has created I would have to opinionate that the area of strength is in the intrapersonal intelligence. This area refers to gain the ability of understanding yourself and knowing your preferences, capabilities and deficiencies. It’s by far obvious that once you develop that relationship with yourself you can accomplish things at a greater level. I feel that it has somewhat of a similarity with learning to love yourself before you can love others. In some cases there are many students that are bright but don’t get anywhere in life because of fear and lack of confidence in themselves to go deeper and try harder. When you know yourself, what you want, the preferences the things you rather have in life and measure what you are capable of and what might be an obstacle you have a clear path to handle any given situation at any given moment. It’s important to realize how much your worth and building that relationship with yourself will have nothing but positive results.
Excellent comments. Finding oneself and empowering yourself to help others is a great tool to teach others. Helping students achieve this is what you will be doing once you step foot into a classroom. I like what you said you said it well.
